It's always a good idea to not give the keys to your house to someone you don't know. In this case, with the information you gave it would be possible for someone to take control of your director (depending on your firewall settings), which may not have given them access to your files, but they could make your backups disappear, or issue a restore of files from one server to another, or restore files from a much older backup, wiping out newer files. -John -- "The reptiles and I, the reptiles and I.
